Cumulus Networks has announced a new partnership with HPE to bring highly automated and scalable storage networking solution to data centers. HPE’s StoreFabric M-Series Ethernet Switches will now run Cumulus Linux and NetQ. According to Cumulus Networks, this partnership will provide customers with a predictable, scalable, and reliable networking fabric.
“Many modern data centers feature all flash storage architectures designed to meet the needs of high-performance applications, but what’s often limited these applications from reaching their true potential was networking,” said Josh Leslie, CEO of Cumulus Networks. “The combination of Cumulus Linux and NetQ with HPE’s M-Series Ethernet Switches now provides organizations a more open, flexible networking fabric that is predictable, scalable, and reliable to help drive businesses forward.”
